100 words (minimum) about their territory/where their pride will be built/how they achieved this territory: these vast plains are home to many creatures, with its red deserts and distant mountains. the plains are mostly, made up of the red deserts, their reddish sand, dry and crumbly underpaw. in the center where a river slices through the middle, there is sparse vegetation as you head away from the river, the vegetation grows sparser, with the occasional shrubs and low trees. in the distant there are rolling hills leading up to vast mountains, quite a journey away. many would call this land a harsh place, which it is, but somehow creatures manage to live here. the most powerful being the pride that has settled down, but there are secrets looming in their past that no one knows about. this land was taken. yes, the current pride was formed after a war. through bloodshed. after the fall of the previous pride's king the new king, arose to the throne. their past is horrifying, and they should be ashamed of it, but after many years it had been long forgotten. or so to speak. the past is never truly forgotten though is it? perhaps, if one dug deep enough, they would uncover the long forgotten truth.

100 words (minimum) about their territory/where their pride will be built/how they achieved this territory: It had been a couple of weeks since the young lioness had to run away from its home. It was invaded by an enemy pride that sought to take it over. She hadn't even gotten the time to clean herself up. Looking at her paws for a second or two shaking her head before continuing to pad along. Knowing in her head that she had to have been the only one to make it out. It felt unreal and the guilt was starting to set in. Though she knew that feeling the guilt wasn't right. As her mother and father both yelled at her as they fought to get out and as far away as possible. She knew she had to rebuild the pride somewhere else, but how would she even be able to do that? After all, she was only one lion going to make a pride that was insane. For her parent's she would do it though knowing they were watching and protecting her. Soon she stumbled upon a spot that seemed to speak to her. It was a rocky mountain area that had sections of caves and them trees fanned around it. Giving it a great place for meetings to be held by pride. She bound up to the cave closest to the top and looked around the place. It seemed quite with only prey really around and no other pride. So she sat down beginning to clean herself choosing to make this place her new home. (250 words whoopsie)

Obsty lives with his pride in a vast oasis. Prey is rich and the flora and fauna are diverse. It is defended by a variety of strange creatures that Obsty created himself, to defend his pride. They include griffins, pegasus, hellhounds, cerberus, even a handful of dragons. There are even some dinosaurs and some Obsty made himself. They are not over-powerful, only having the force of what they look like the most, or the force of a lion. In the middle of the territory is a beautiful lake with fish, alligators and hippos. Living on the banks are animals like storks and buffaloes.

"It was my mother who told me about the island, a dry expanse of land surrounded by little vegetation, just off the coast. Of course this peaked my interest, my father wanted me gone along with my siblings, and I wasn't going to turn down territory of my own. The next day I made my way to where the island and my continent are closest, and began to swim. It didn't take long, although the sea that day was mild. When I could feel sand under my paws again I looked around, inhaling deeply to check for predators. When I didn't sense any danger, I began to explore."

Angel island is the smallest around the main continent, but it holds more secrets than any other. Those who visit must swim to a small cove with a golden sand beach. Going up a slight incline will eventually take you to the largest section of this island, revealing a large field with a few trees scattered here and there. In the center of this field is a large pond that serves as a breeding ground for catfish and pike, as well as many types of frogs, toads, and lizards if you have the stomach. To your far left you'll see a cliff face spanning the edge of the field, heading up there would take you to Mother Tree, a sacred site where it is believed one may communicate with their ancestors. Lastly, if you head south from there, you will reach Harp Woods, named for the strange sounds one hears coming from the trees in the night. This is the prides primary hunting grounds.
